Updated dependent role validation during rule deletion
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
After checking out and attempting to private-edit the "PegaRULES:WorkMgr4" AR, the rule was still shown as checked out after the edit was discarded. This was a missed use case, as Private checkouts are generally not enabled for most of the customer rulesets. To resolve this, roles in private checkout and branch rulesets will be excluded from going through dependent role validation during rule deletion.

Improved performance for "Show-HTML" in a grid with numerous controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
‘Show-HTML’ was taking an excessive amount of time to render a UI for grid with a large number of controls. This was traced to the handling for generating and clearing markup creating an exponential growth situation, and has been resolved by modifying the system to remove redundant copies of a string in the markup string buffer.

pzGetURLHashes returns proper content-type
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3
When using an environment set with X-Content-Type-Options:nosniff, the response from pzGetURLHashes was returned with text/html response type and the mashup would not load due to browser exception "MIME Type ('text/html')is not excutable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled." In order to support CORB mitigation in the browser, the javascript content type will be set in the response header for pzGetURLHashes call.

Updated ConfirmHarness handling for case type creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
If a new case type was created with the initialization stage and there were no assignments in the case type, the /cases API did not return a NextPageID in response. This has been resolved by setting the pyConfirmHarness parameter before calling addworkobject.

Correct flow actions loaded in multi-thread portal refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The member authentication screen was displaying an incorrect flow action on doing browser refresh after creating a new interaction. Refresh is a special case where the parameter retention is different across single-threaded & multi-threaded portals alongside the execution order of activities. In this case, this inconsistency occurred in a multi-threaded portal when newAssignPage had the information to load the proper assignment but the parameter indicated an old index. This has been resolved by adding 'when' conditions to to populate and pass the correct references and labels and to honor the Param.TaskIndex set and sent by UI activities so it's retained in case of multi-thread portals.

Lock conflict resolved for AssignmentCheck
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The error "Unable to unlock this work object" sporadically appeared in both the runtime log and Pega RULES log when the robot was trying to create a case in Pega using an API call. Investigation showed that as the case was created, it was pulled by another robot (another requestor) which was using the GetAssignments API. This caused the perform assignment check to fail. To resolve this, a 'when' rule has been added to the performAssignmentCheck Activity.

Visible element populated for field value controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
When implementing a section which had several labels with visible when conditions, this is not reflected in the DX API Get Assignment View. This has been resolved by adding a visible element.

Deprecated NewWorkGadget registered for BAC
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Logging in through the Administrator portal and launching a new project resulted in a blank screen. Investigation traced this to the Create New Work action called in the NewWorkGadget control; because the NewWorkGadget is no longer used by Pega, it was not registered for use with BAC. To resolve this, validations have been added for Control: NewWorkGadget, and the control has been marked as deprecated.

DSS added to control merge strategy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
The activity page merge option takes merge strategy as input and supports different merge strategy options like 'Replace', 'Update' etc. Previously, V1 DX APIs defaulted to REPLACE as the merge strategy; this has been updated to support both 'REPLACE' and 'UPDATE' merge strategies which can be controlled with the new DSS "v1MergeStrategy". The DSS to customize the merge strategy for v2 APIs is 'v2MergeStrategy', which also takes the values 'REPLACE' and 'UPDATE', which are for merge strategy '1' and '3' respectively. The default strategy from Pega 8.6 forward is 'UPDATE' and any other value other than the above two values will be considered as 'UPDATE'.
